‘Quantum of Solace’ – Title of Bond 22
‘Quantum of Solace’, new Bond film title is confirmed.
Bond fans have spotted that internet domain names for “Quantum Of Solace” have been recently registered by Sony Pictures.
It’s not a bad, certainly better than Risico, but I think they could come up with something better than ‘Quantum of Solace’.
The title is taken from one of a collection of short stories published by 007 creator Ian Fleming in 1960.
The new film, which will see Daniel Craig reprise his role as the iconic British agent, will also feature Ukrainian actress Olga Kurylenko.
The next outing is the 22nd in the Bond franchise, and is partly being shot at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire.
The Title of Bond 22 Will be Announced Tomorrow
Work has begun on the 22nd James Bond film, which has a scheduled release for November 2008.
Daniel Craig will return for his second Bond role with the main cast of Olga Kurylenko, Gemma Arteton, Mattieu Amalric, Jeffrey Wright and Dame Judi Dench.
Amalric will be the Bond villain. The French actor has made a string of French films dating back to ‘Les Favoris de la Lune’ in 1984.
Ukraine born actress Olga Kurylenko is “the Bond girl”. Her previous films were mostly European productions.
Marc Foster will direct the new movie. He is relatively new, having only made seven films previously. He directed ‘Monster’s Ball’ (2001) and ‘Finding Neverland’ (2004).
Initial filming began in London on January 3rd and will move to Lake Constance in the town of Bregenz, in western Austria in April.
The title of the movie will be announced tomorrow at a press conference in London.
Gemma Arterton is Bond 22 Girl
The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed rumors that British actress Gemma Arterton has been cast as the new Bond Girl in Bond 22 (rumored to be titled 007). Gemma made her film debut in the 2007 St Trinian’s movie St Trinian’s.
Production began earlier in the week, nearly a month behind the original schedule. Bond 22 is still scheduled to hit theaters on November 7th 2008. Arterton just came off of Guy Ritche’s latest RocknRolla, which will also hit theaters later this year.
‘Bond 22’ Starts Filming on January 3rd
The Bond site M16 reports that ‘Bond 22’ will begin filming on January 3rd, 2008. One reported scene that will be shot this week is in London at the Barbican, although Daniel Craig isn’t in it. Bond site also ran some interesting quotes from director Marc Forster about the film and its direction.
Forster says he aims to further develop Craig’s interpretation of Bond where he left off in ’Casino Royale’. The film will be more of a journey into 007′s inner-being than a globe-hopping trip around the world, as Forster explained: ’When Bond began in the Connery days, travel was a luxury not everyone could afford. Today, the world has become smaller. If Bond goes to a beach with palm trees it’s almost banal now. The only interesting trip remains the journey inwards, deep in to the psyche’.
